Mechanical Property Anisotropy of 7010 Aluminum Alloy Sheet Having Single Rotated-Brass Texture

Article Preview

Abstract:

Mechanical property anisotropy in terms of in-plane anisotropy (AIP) of yield strength, and work hardening behavior of a heat treated 7010 aluminum alloy sheet has been investigated. The specimens were given two different types of heat treatments that result in a unique single rotated Brass-{110}á556ñ component with different texture intensity and volume fraction of recrystallization. It has been observed that the AIP increases with increase in texture intensity and volume fraction of recrystallization. The results are discussed on the basis of Schmid factor analyses in conjunction with microstructural features namely, grain morphology and precipitation. On the other hand, work hardening behavior appears to be significantly affected by the microstructural features rather than type of texture present in the samples.
